Hello & welcome.
First place I would check is the Sisters wiki

hi Steve, Thanks for the quick reply. I've checked that page and it does mention support dates in 1982. but i think they also did some in 1981, as the old sax player Duncan Kilburn first met him when they supported The Furs and he left the Furs in 1981. The hunt goes on!

Well, our Nik's blog is also a veritable goldmine of information too.
You might find something there

no date - but great article. AE mentions the time when he handed a demo cassette of Alice to Duncan!

Hey there @trippingflags. I recognised your name from the infamous thread on the Furs Forum in 2004 about the Sisters and it reminded me that I had a previously unfinished blog article on this issue, which I have published today in honour of the anniversary of the handover of the demo tape to Duncan Kilburn by Eldritch on 29th May 1981 :

great stuff Nikolas. i liked this quote in particular ' "Can't quite recall what soured things - may have been his lengthy stays in the States or just his general commitment to the Furs above us... he did have a habit of turning up wearing Mickey Mouse sweat shirts and pastel slacks" ... - yes, the furs forum was fun and then fb took over the world.
